Yana Medow

Artist Yana Medow creates striking portrayals of feminine characters, using exaggerated features to explore inner contradictions, complexities, and imperfections. "With simple lines, I express the plasticity of the human body," says Yana. She has been passionate about drawing since childhood, never parting with pencil and paper as she created entire worlds in her creations. Yana's skills developed over time, and she realized that creativity was the only path she wanted to follow. She listens to classical literature audiobooks while painting in her plant-filled studio in central Madrid. Outside of art, Yana enjoys walking in parks, observing birds and people, and jotting down observations about everyday life in the city.
